What happens when a wine ages for 20 years in stainless steel before it’s even bottled? The answer is the Masi Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Vajo dei Masi 1999, Senior Editor Aldo Fiordelli’s latest Wine Crush. This rare Amarone spent two decades resting in steel tanks after its initial time in oak before being bottled in 2024.
This process gives the wine a stunning combination of deep evolution and surprising energy. It’s a complex wine that still shows incredible freshness and fragrant fruit.
